Sofia Coppola’s new adaptation of Priscilla Presley’s life arrives at an interesting time for Elvis’ legacy. Not only did Baz Luhrmann’s Oscar-nominated biopic about the King of Rock N' Roll get a rapturous reception last year, but the Presley family themselves have often been in the spotlight these past few months.
However, Priscilla is concerned with a different story. Reframing the history many know so well, it stars Cailee Spaeny as Elvis’ wife, charting her story from the moment she met him aged just 14 right up until the end of their marriage. Told through Coppola’s unique lens, we see a very different side to Elvis as it reexamines what you think you know about this relationship.
